>>We feel that there is significant expertise
around the world and that year-long international volunteers can be a
powerful way in which skills, knowledge and wisdom can be exchanged to help
bridge the divide.
The United Nations Information Technology Service (www.unites.org)
has been tracking how volunteers use ICT as part of their service,
including to help close the digital divide, for more than a few years
now. The site hasn't been updated in a while, but still has extensive
resources. It's part of the UN Volunteers programme (but is not
limited to UNV).
